Ahead of the season, one of the bigger question marks with the Wisconsin Badgers was transfer redshirt sophomore Will Pauling.
To the outside, Pauling was an under-the-radar transfer who had limited playing time at Cincinnati due to a redshirt year and an injury, and his experience differed from starters Bryson Green and Chimere Dike.
But, to those that watched Pauling from spring ball, it took one route in practice for me to understand he was a special type of talent.
Holding a smaller frame at 5’10, 187 pounds, Pauling moves with a different level of fluidity out of the spot, and that explosiveness off the line of scrimmage stood out on his very first rep.
